Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Umberto Eco, author of The Name of the Rose and Foucault's Pendulum, said: It's only publishers and some journalists who believe that people want simple things. People are tired of simple things. They want to be challenged. SEE THE GREAT DETECTIVE MATCH WITS WITH THE SON OF GOD ON THE ROOF OF THE WORLD. SEE HIS COVER BLOWN BY THE MOTHER OF GOD AT THE CRUCIBLE OF LIFE. SEE HIM SOLVE THE MYSTERY OF GOD AT THE DAWN OF TIME. With this trilogy, Thomas Kent Miller is for the first time publishing in one volume the wide variety of millennia- and centuries-old lost manuscripts that he has serendipitously unearthed over 30 years. These writings are all linked by their featuring characters introduced by H. Rider Haggard, prime mover of the lost race literary genre, over the course of sixteen books written from 1885 through 1927 and, to a lesser extent, indeed, only referenced obliquely, The Great Detective, over three decades!

Download or read book The Sussex Beekeeper at the Dawn of Time written by Thomas Kent Miller and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2022-09-14 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sussex Beekeeper at the Dawn of Time is an unconventional and breath-taking tour de force that flirts with the crossover and steampunk genres. The book knits together a transcribed oral memoir, newspaper clippings, and myriad letters and journal pages from across two millennia, much of it held together by the pithy comments (in the form of short notations on the edges of a quarter-century-old yellowed journal) of a certain elderly beekeeper residing in Sussex, England. While comparatively few, these notes are nonetheless the essential marble skeleton on which the whole denouement and structure of the book hangs. In a sense, much of the book comprises a straightforward objective record of the excavation of "historical" minutiae and “forgotten” manuscripts. But then those mildewed scraps of parchment, paper, and scrolls are assembled into something far greater than the sum of their parts. The objective reportage plus the finished assemblage comprises the novel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year, millions of Americans visit planetariums and are captivated by their strikingly realistic portrayal of the night sky. Today, it is indeed difficult to imagine astronomy education without these magnificent celestial theaters. But projection planetariums, first developed in Germany, have been a part of American museum pedagogy only since the early twentieth century and were not widespread until the 1960s. In this unique social history, former planetarium director and historian of science Jordan D. Marché II offers the first complete account of the community of individuals and institutions that, during the period between 1930 and 1970, made planetariums the popular teaching aids they are today. Marché addresses issues such as the role of gender and social developments within the planetarium community, institutional patronage, and the popularization of science. He reveals how, at different times, various groups, including financial donors, amateur scientists, and government officials, viewed the planetarium as an instrument through which they could shape public understanding and perceptions of astronomy and space science. Offering an insightful, wide-ranging look into the origins of an institution that has fascinated millions, Theaters of Time and Space brings new perspectives to how one educational community changed the cultural complexion of science, helped shape public attitudes toward the U.S. space program, and even contributed to policy decisions regarding allocations for future space research.
